2013-11-05PowerCap: Fix build error with option -Werror=format-securitySrinivas Pandruvada
Fix compile error with gcc option: -Werror=format-security for dev_set_name(&control_type->dev, name). Changed to dev_set_name(&control_type->dev, "%s", name).

2013-10-25PowerCap: Convert class code to use dev_groupsThierry Reding
The newly added power capping framework uses the obsolete .dev_attrs field of struct class. However this field will be removed in 3.13, so convert the code to use the .dev_groups field instead.

2013-10-18PowerCap: Introduce Intel RAPL power capping driverJacob Pan
The Intel Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) technology provides platform software with the ability to monitor, control, and get notifications on power usage. This feature is present in all Sandy Bridge and later Intel processors. Newer models allow more fine grained controls to be applied. In RAPL, power control is divided into domains, which include package, DRAM controller, CPU core (Power Plane 0), graphics uncore (power plane 1), etc. The purpose of this driver is to expose the RAPL settings to userspace. Overall, RAPL fits in the new powercap class driver in that platform level power capping controls are exposed via this generic interface. This driver is based on an earlier patch from Zhang Rui. However, while the previous work was mainly focused on thermal monitoring the focus here is on the usability from user space perspective.

2013-10-17PowerCap: Add class driverSrinivas Pandruvada
The power capping framework providing a consistent interface between the kernel and user space that allows power capping drivers to expose their settings to user space in a uniform way. The overall design of the framework is described in the documentation added by the previous patch in this series.
